Welcome to Litsy!

This is both simple and complex: mindfulness is everything.

Copper, however, is having none of it. #DogsofLitsy

#Sep2025 Book87 #AsheCoNCReadingChallenge

This is the last book! In my quest to complete the 50 category Ashe County North Carolina Library Reading Challenge, I commit to this on a vacation starting right now.

1. As a very anxious person, I use several different practices for inner peace. Going for walks, meditating, journaling, and drawing are my go-to methods. I do these things regularly and that helps, but I‘ll do them more when I‘m anxious or feeling down.
2. The tagged book and “Upstream� by Mary Oliver (as well as any of her poetry) are my top reads to help with inner peace.

Thich Nhat Hanh is so brilliant in my eyes and I enjoyed this a lot - a relatively simple read about the overlap between Buddhism & Christianity, and one very rooted in compassion which I really appreciated

Next up I'm tackling my first ever Jane Austen!

My top spiritual read. Thich Nhat Hanh blends his beliefs in the Buddha and Jesus Christ, striving for peace, love, mindfulness, and enlightenment. I'm not religious, but spiritual. I do believe in God, and this book honed in on my beliefs almost perfectly.

A quick listen for today. I love everything that he writes. #audio #listenup

So worth the read. Really opens your eyes to how similar Buddhism and Christianity are.
